My mantra about the artists I invite to Mohonk is that "they don't come to play a gig, they come to play!"

The Butler-Bernstein Hot Nine On Parade

And the artists who get into the spirit of the jazzfest, in their own shows and often joining in other shows, while also enjoying being with their loved ones in the Mountain House - we call these artists "Mohonk-y."

L-R: Scott Robinson, Martin Wind, Helen Sung, Dennis Mackrel

And about that Mountain House… it was built in 1869, and it always looks beautiful!
